Couldn’t agree more. Had a few of my son’s rugby team over watching the game and I turned to one of the props at the end and said “This is why we keep practicing scrums.” Right thru the game we just kept looking at who was winning the contact areas….the AB forwards were immense today.

YES!!!!!!

I think the quality of who you play is important as well. This is what made Super Rugby such a great preparation for the SH Test players. You can play 30 times a year in the NPC or NRC and it won’t necessarily make you a better Test player. We have seen many players in the past who were great domestic...

ABs by 3 and a controversial call

You think can order me or give me commands? LOL Follow your own damn advice

Most Australian don't think their teams can win against Aotearoa teams. That doesn't mean they aren't passionate. They've lost hope. Nothing I've said contradicts that. And I don't give a fuck what you think about me. I've seen your type before and I see right through your 'nothing to do with...

I don't think there is anything that we can point to that will happen overnight. In my mind, it will take at least 10-15 years to get right and the domestic product still won't be the big money maker. It will still be the Wallabies and hopefully Super Rugby, in whatever form it finally takes. The...

I'd be happy too. I thought we were done here:

Great. You agree with me and not Hoggy who thinks

And you happily ignore that I already pointed out the Brumbies v Tahs number. Stop lying about what I've said or making up bullshit like "you only think Kiwi think they can win and have passion for there teams" I'm here defending passionate Australian fans you idiot. Your unhinged hatred for...

Agree to disagree. If the Reds were topping the table and the Force were top 4, both consistently beating Aotearoa teams, fans would be back in big numbers.

Like the actual game, there's not a lot of rugby people I wouldn't fight passionately and then buy a beer in the pub. :)

I'm not the one claiming that Australian fans are just dying to see Australian teams play each other.

Do you think every Top 14 game is sold-out? The Reds obviously had no passionate fans when they were averaging almost 30,000 fans for 4 years over 20,000 fans a game for 6 years. And I'm the one accused of being disingenuous? I'm sorry you hate Super Rugby but lots of people don't. They...

Holy shit. Yes - we agree... :D :D

This year? Where did you get the numbers? I can't find a whole lot of attendance numbers for 2023 and I'm keen to see them.

And if you had read my posts you would be aware that I'm fully supportive of a strong domestic product. And yet you guys keep saying that I'm just Kiwi-centric. Tomikin or Tomthumb says they wants a product that includes the PI nations, South America and Japan. You say want an international...

I'm sorry...you don't want quantifiable data now?

You realise Super Rugby is an international competition right? And games vs NZ teams seem to pull better attendances than against poor Aus teams. Crusaders v Reds at Suncorp pulled 14,000 Force v Rebels at HBF Park, less than 7,000

You literally said 'Stop playing NZ' less than 2 weeks ago. Next. :D :D
